I'm trying to run a django site with apache mod-wsgi with nginx as the front-end to reverse proxy into apache.

In my Apache ports.conf file: 

NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.1:7000 Listen 192.168.0.1:7000 <VirtualHost 192.168.0.1:7000> DocumentRoot /var/apps/example/ ServerName example.com WSGIDaemonProcess example WSGIProcessGroup example Alias /m/ /var/apps/example/forum/skins/ Alias /upfiles/ /var/apps/example/forum/upfiles/ <Directory /var/apps/example/forum/skins> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Directory> WSGIScriptAlias / /var/apps/example/django.wsgi </VirtualHost>

In my nginx config:

server { listen 80; server_name example.com; location / { include /usr/local/nginx/conf/proxy.conf; proxy_pass http://192.168.0.1:7000; proxy_redirect default; root /var/apps/example/forum/skins/; } #error_page 404 /404.html; # redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html; location = /50x.html { root html; } }

After restarting both apache and nginx, nothing works, example.com simply hangs or serves index.html in my /var/www/ folder.

I'd appreciate any advice to point me in the right direction. I've tried several tutorials online to no avail.

    Have you confirmed whether Apache/mod_wsgi works by access the backend web server first, ie., bypassing nginx? Commented Jun 9, 2010 at 1:07
  • Hmm, good point. It worked before when I had PHP, but then I installed mod_wsgi and everything seems broken. Commented Jun 9, 2010 at 17:06
  • ok nevermind it works now, the problem was /root/.python-eggs. It was trying to find python eggs at /var/www/... Commented Jun 9, 2010 at 18:20

I've got a sneaky suspicion that the problem might be /root/.python-eggs -- I think you might be trying to find python eggs at /var/www/... ;)
